The Edition of the Old-Latin Texts of the Actus Apostolorum

公元2世纪开始出现的拉丁文圣经翻译，可以通过手稿以及基督教作者作品中的引文来重建、本地化和确定日期。关于使徒行传的文本，我们面临着各种不同的文本类型，这些文本直到中世纪才产生影响，并经历了各种修改，最终导致了相对同质的Vulgate文本。自2002年以来，这一复杂的传播史一直是仔细研究的主题，其结果将在博隆的Archabbey赞助下发表在Vtus Latina系列中。2009年，维特斯拉丁纳研究所提供了现存手稿的照片。由于DFG的资助，对这些手稿进行了整理，即对其文本进行了解码，并将其输入数字数据库；这项任务是在赠款期限内完成的。按照DFG评审员的建议，自2013年以来，我们在获得VL研究所许可的情况下，逐步向科学界在线提供这些校对(http://nttf.klassphil.uni-mainz.de/196.php))。国际社会对这份新闻稿的反应表明，有理由在出版前投入更多的时间和精力进行审查和协调；这一程序导致了对原时间表的调整(在与副总干事协商后，这项任务的截止日期从2013年夏季推迟到2014年1月，没有造成任何进一步的费用)。如果获得额外资金，我们将能够完成在线出版(到目前为止，第1至12章的校对已经在网上发布)，并将使学生研究人员参与编辑过程成为可能。第一章的编辑工作(2014年出版)的完成将为他们提供一个模板，其中包括执行复杂准备工作所需的所有技术细节，这些细节将在编辑过程中加以修订：1)生成所谓的图式：根据主要见证人(即最能代表各自文本类型的见证人)，每一种文本类型的线条必须在校对的基础上安排在图式中。这已经被执行到第9章。2)对于每一节，拼写设备列出所有手稿，它们的空隙或难以辨认的段落，拼写错误和特殊的拼写。3)位于明斯特的《新约全书》考证研究所使我们能够接触到希腊文文献传统中发现的各种变体。因此，如果一个拉丁语版本可以追溯到一个可核实的希腊语Vorlage，那么这种关系也是有文件记录的(学生研究人员精通这两种语言)。4)见证人机构为每一节按字母顺序包含教父证据(包括所有教会父亲的引文和明显的典故)；它是以数据库为基础构建的。

The Latin bible translations, which began to emerge in the 2nd century AD, can be reconstructed, localised and dated by means of manuscripts as well as of quotations found in the works of the Christian authors. With regard to the text of the Acts of the Apostles, we are faced with a variety of different text types, which were influential until the Middle Ages and underwent various revisions eventually leading to a relatively homogeneous Vulgate text. Since 2002, this complex history of transmission has been the subject of a close examination, whose results will be published in the Vetus Latina series under the patronage of the Archabbey in Beuron. In 2009, the Vetus Latina Institute provided photographs of the manuscripts extant today. Due to the DFG funding, these manuscripts were collated, i.e. their text was decoded and entered into a digital database; this task was accomplished within the grant duration. As recommended by the DFG reviewers, we have gradually been making these collations accessible online (http://nttf.klassphil.uni-mainz.de/196.php) for the scientific community since 2013 with the permission of the VL Institute. The international response to this release showed that it was justified to invest additional time and effort in reviewing and harmonising the collations before their publication; this procedure had led to an adjustment of the original schedule (after consultation with the DFG, the due date for this task was postponed from summer 2013 to January 2014 without causing any further expenses). Additional funding, if granted, will enable us to complete the online publication (so far, collations for chapters 1 to 12 have been released online) and will make possible the involvement of the student researchers within the editing process. The completion of editing the 1st chapter (publication in 2014) will provide them with a template including all the technical details needed to execute the complex preparatory work, which will be revised during the editing process: 1) Generating the so-called Schemata: Based on the main witnesses (i.e. the witnesses which best represent the respective text type), the lines for every single text type have to be arranged in a Schema on the basis of the collations. This has already been carried out up to chapter 9. 2) For every single verse, the orthographic apparatus lists all manuscripts, their lacunae or illegible passages, orthographic mistakes and peculiar spellings. 3) The Institute for New Testament Textual Research in Münster has made the range of variants found within the Greek textual tradition accessible to us. Thus, if a Latin version can be traced back to a verifiable Greek Vorlage, this relation is documented as well (the student researchers are proficient in both languages). 4) The witness apparatus contains the patristic evidence (consisting of all church father citations and obvious allusions) in alphabetical order for every single verse; it is constructed on the basis of databases.
